La «cuvée»

A 33 year old single cask Glen Scotia (#2749) distilled in 1977 and bottled by Signatory Vintage. Signatory Vintage was founded in 1988 by Andrew Symington, who previously worked at Prestonfield House, Edinburgh, where he would select casks specially for the hotel. In 2002, he bought the Edradour distillery in Pitlochry, in the Highlands of Scotland and moved Signatory Vintage to the site, including the warehouses opposite the distillery. A limited edition of 177 bottles.

Scotland, Campbeltown, Mull of Kintyre. Distillery operational. Owner: Loch Lomond Group

It is almost a miracle that Glen Scotia survived the crises of the 20th century and the periods of restructuring that were to hit the Scotch whisky industry. And yet, along with Springbank, it was for a long time one of only two survivors of the long and inexorable decline of Campbeltown, once a veritable whisky metropolis. Glen Scotia boasts a handful of bottlings, all now extremely rare, dating from the 60s and 70s and aged between 5 and 12 years old.From the late 1980s, its bottlings were similar to those of Littlemill, as the distilleries both belonged to the same owners. Since 2015, the Loch Lomond group has completely redefined the distillery's range and released a plethora of exclusive bottlings.
